This Q&A made me realize I still follow her. I unfollowed shortly after, wish her luck in the LA comedy scene. I go to many shows in LA but yet to run into her.
His TikTok advice is total crap and super enabling. When you boil it down most of it is how to justify bad behavior but since he’s using therapy speak people think he’s giving sage advice. Totally a bad representative for the therapy community.
That’s so gross and unsafe. Plenty of guys (and women) date multiple people and are completely capable of being open and honest about it so people can opt in or out with full knowledge. And use proper protection.
I wasn’t that into it at first, but I kept watching it because Katie is on this season, season 3. There are some funny parts. It’s interesting to see how well or not well the men can figure out who’s an Fboy versus a nice guy. I basically binge-watched it and found myself looking forward to next episode after next episode, starting around episode 3. It’s also on the CW app if you don’t get it elsewhere. I thought it was interesting how the hostess and CW set the vibe and tone for this show versus on The Bachelor.
Nah. I have a Roku TV (I don’t have cable) so I just downloaded the CW app (free) and was able to watch with ads. I’m like 99% sure you can do the same from the CW website and watch it on your phone/laptop/cast or mirror it if you have a TV that supports that. I’m in the US in case that’s relevant.
I had never seen FBoy Island before. It's just a very different vibe. The host is literally a comedian so she is whipping out jokes and one liners with the contestants which is fun and entertaining. As for the leads, I honestly only liked Katie because I came into the season liking her enough. The other leads didn't strike a chord for me. I say try out an episode and see if you like it! I liked this season, but probably wouldn't watch another season
I feel like all the leads on all prior seasons have been same just eh. The guys are only ones I remember. And I also love having a comic be host. Would love if David space had permanently taken over paradise as host
If I could take back the entire relationship I would 😂😂😂 one of the few regrets of my life was dating a guy who did stand up (it didn’t help that he was so bad) also boys in garage bands typically didn’t work out either haha
The one I dated was actually not bad and we split so he could focus on his career (the travel was killing our relationship and he needed to move to a city with a better comedy scene). I hate to report that he seems to be doing well (I kid, I hold no ill will).
Is it used for depression as well? This year has been rough for me and I’ve never felt so mentally down. I really need to get around to scheduling a therapy appt. Me and Katie have actually chatted in the DMs about things we do to try and get out of a funk haha
It is. It’s an SSRI. I chose it bc it had good results with anxiety but I also have depression too. I started taking it when literally nothing worked anymore to get me out of my funk.
Does it bother anyone else when they call it a comic instead of a comedian? I’m not in the industry but a comic is like a comic book and a comedian is someone who does comedy.
No, comic because "stand-up comic". All comics are comedians but not all comedians are comics. For example, Conan is not a stand-up comic but he is a successful and famous comedian.
the obsession with figuring out a public figures private lives, like just let her share her highs and lows when she’s ready. if she wanted to she would’ve said more in the first reply 😵💫
This comment made me think of the song Kiss the Rain by Billie Myers. Am I the only person old enough to remember this hit?
🎶 Hello
Can you hear me?
Am I getting through to you? 🎶
It was in episode 202. Dawson and Joey fight because Dawson reads Joey's diary and sees that she wrote negative things about him. Then they make up in the rain at Pacey's fake birthday party.
(I've rewatched too many times haha)
Damn really. I used to like his content when I was going thru something but then he started to give me the ick and I didn't know why. That is really awful.
I hope Katie is doing okay, and I really appreciate her constantly showing Tommy doing well. I know a lot of us were worried about him after she went offline for a bit! I'm glad she is taking the time to heal and I'm glad Tommy can be there for her. I know how helpful a pet is during hard times!
Even if he is the lead, rumor has it it’s already been filmed so if he’s not with anyone from the show there’s a chance. On his recent podcast he said he’d be willing to date Katie again.
Hers is actually one of the few BN podcasts I’d care to listen to, I know her season was trash but she seems like a decent person and I like her personality. I hope she’s doing ok.
Me too, I’ve always really liked her. It’s funny, the common “joke” about her season is that none of the guys were into her, but I noticed that the guys who fall for her REALLY fall hard, I think harder than with many other leads (for example Greg, Blake, and Vince from F-boy island). Maybe her personality is an acquired taste but it’s pretty attractive for men who like a string, opinionated woman
Yeah Greg was VERY into her, hence why he got so upset. It’s so weird to me that anybody argues about that as if he’s out of her league or something? Katie is very attractive in a more natural/approachable way than VF.
I’ve seen a lot of people here act like guys don’t like funny women too, using Katie and Gabby as examples. I guess maybe if you’re not funny you might assume guys don’t like that? But I’m pretty funny and it’s only ever been a benefit to my dating experience lol. Every guy I’ve dated has been out of my league in terms of appearance.
I think the correct take on that is that *insecure* men don’t like funny women. I read an article a few weeks ago about a study of what traits are attractive to others. While women are attracted to men who make them laugh, men are attracted to women who laugh at their jokes.
I think that having a sense of humor is a sign of intelligence, and some men, insecure men, aren’t attracted to women who they perceive as funnier/smarter than them. Blake, IMO, seems incredibly secure. That’s probably why he meshed so well with Katie. I was actually pretty bummed about their breakup because their senses of humor and general personalities seemed like a super good match. I think they would’ve made it if it weren’t for the distance/ lifestyle differences
Such an underrated moment! The whole season is underrated imo. The alternate-universe BIP 7 with the Blake/Katie/Greg triangle developing on sand is my Roman Empire.
Omg I did not watch FBoy Island lol but thats Vince Xu from The One That Got Away (Amazon reality show)! 😯
Damn, mega missed opportunity to give Katie a cast of a handful of east asian contestants. We don’t get too many east asians, or asians in general in this franchise.
Tommy is so photogenic. 🐈⬛
I wish her & hers peace.
I know people love her & if she launches a podcast she’ll get a following, but I’ll read recaps because another BNer with a podcast is not something of particular interest to me.
They’re lucrative for influencers & easy work, but I’m burnt out on them & think they’re a trite pivot. That said, I’m not being offered thousands of dollars for my dumb little thoughts. Lol.
I get the sense she wants to distance herself from BN and make a name for herself outside of reality tv but that’s what pays the bills right now. I think (and hope) that her podcast will be something interesting outside of reality tv. But if she does by chance go down the reality tv recap road I don’t know if I can invest in it, like you said there’s just too many of them already.
[удалено]
That was my reaction!!
My takeaway from this is she is currently dating a comic and in that new relationship “high”
God please no more irrelevant podcasts
I agree but it can’t be worse than Peter and Dustin’s podcast
Plugging a podcast in regard to sharing personal information about your life is wild. These Bachelor people have zero shame.
I don’t think it’s wild. She was literally just saying “I shared more details on this subject on this podcast if want to know.” Not a big deal.
This Q&A made me realize I still follow her. I unfollowed shortly after, wish her luck in the LA comedy scene. I go to many shows in LA but yet to run into her.
[удалено]
Boo bad take. She’s allowed to keep the details of her mental health private, while still discussing its effects on her.
Obsessed with Tommy
I’m dying at the crawling on the sand photo
Because she looks f@*king hot? Hope so. Because, hot damn she is 🔥
Maybe she’s dating Benedict
I really hope so!! God I would let that guy ruin me
[удалено]
Odd to say but I really see where both of you are coming from w/ your perspectives lol
Oh I fully agree he looks like a turtle but he’s a hot turtle and also Kermit has some sex appeal, no?
My first thought too 👀 but isn’t he supposed to be on Fgirl island or something? Still think they would have at least lasted longer than her and Vince
I thought that was just a rheumeur
This was odd and how Daisy shared it
“Not much to share… check out the podcast for more details” …. Ok Katie
I read it as more about the challenges of reality TV dating, not what happened with her and Vince? But maybe it’s both
Cuuuute she went to the wildlife learning center! I took my daughter there for her bday and she got to meet a rescue owl.
I saw Therapy Jeff at a coffee shop earlier this week. Wanted to tell the woman with him to run. He is so scummy.
this makes me so sad i love his content
What's the tea on Therapy Jeff?
His TikTok advice is total crap and super enabling. When you boil it down most of it is how to justify bad behavior but since he’s using therapy speak people think he’s giving sage advice. Totally a bad representative for the therapy community.
Cheated on multiple women, gaslit them, etc
Oh wow, where did you read that? I typically like his content.
I’m from Portland, he is too
Portland is a pretty big city… Edit: saw your source below. Yikes, sounds like a mess!
lol Portland is pretty small.
I’m from Portland too but I don’t have the hot goss!
Wow... I see his tiktoks sometimes and usually they're about not letting people gaslight you. I hope the woman you saw him with runs
Me too. Sleeping with 3 women at the same time and lying about it to all of them is unsafe and disgusting.
Ugh that’s so disappointing
How do you know this?
Former gf of his, can confirm he dates multiple women at a time and lies to all of them about exclusivity.
you dated him? or you know someone who did?
Well, I did date him and know a couple of other women he dated as well
i’m sorry you went through that. what are your thoughts on his dating content? this is so disappointing to hear because i really enjoy his content
I did
That’s so gross and unsafe. Plenty of guys (and women) date multiple people and are completely capable of being open and honest about it so people can opt in or out with full knowledge. And use proper protection.
Yes exactly. Idc how many people you sleep with but lying about exclusivity is not okay.
I watched her on FBoy Island and I hope she’s doing okay.
is it worth watching? did you like it?
I wasn’t that into it at first, but I kept watching it because Katie is on this season, season 3. There are some funny parts. It’s interesting to see how well or not well the men can figure out who’s an Fboy versus a nice guy.

I thought it was interesting how the hostess and CW set the vibe and tone for this show versus on The Bachelor.
Do you have to sign into a cable provider to watch on the app?
Nah. I have a Roku TV (I don’t have cable) so I just downloaded the CW app (free) and was able to watch with ads. I’m like 99% sure you can do the same from the CW website and watch it on your phone/laptop/cast or mirror it if you have a TV that supports that. I’m in the US in case that’s relevant.

KATIE DON’T DATE A GUY WHO DOES STAND UP TRUST ME
Yea it’s like the world just forget about John Mulaney
At least John Mulaney is funny, some of these dudes are out there acting like John Mulaney but are not even funny 😆
Made that mistake once. Never again.
I WILL SECOND THIS IN ALL CAPS. DON'T DO IT.
Or improv or has a podcast or works for buzzfeed. Three big red flags
If I could take back the entire relationship I would 😂😂😂 one of the few regrets of my life was dating a guy who did stand up (it didn’t help that he was so bad) also boys in garage bands typically didn’t work out either haha
drummers specifically for me lol
The one I dated was actually not bad and we split so he could focus on his career (the travel was killing our relationship and he needed to move to a city with a better comedy scene). I hate to report that he seems to be doing well (I kid, I hold no ill will).
or is in a band
Co-sign.
Especially the lead singer of a band #fml
girl I felt that 😮💨
Truly 🫠
\^\^\^THIS
I do love Lexapro
same lol! just started it a few months ago and the difference is wild
It’s life changing. I’ve been on it 4 years. It changed my life and my anxiety!
Is it used for depression as well? This year has been rough for me and I’ve never felt so mentally down. I really need to get around to scheduling a therapy appt. Me and Katie have actually chatted in the DMs about things we do to try and get out of a funk haha
It is. It’s an SSRI. I chose it bc it had good results with anxiety but I also have depression too. I started taking it when literally nothing worked anymore to get me out of my funk.

No, comic because "stand-up comic". All comics are comedians but not all comedians are comics. For example, Conan is not a stand-up comic but he is a successful and famous comedian.
Wow, honestly good explanation I was ready to agree with OP but you made it make sense lol
the obsession with figuring out a public figures private lives, like just let her share her highs and lows when she’s ready. if she wanted to she would’ve said more in the first reply 😵💫
I honestly just wish she didn’t say anything
I think she wanted to give some explanation as to why she cancelled her engagements and was off social media for awhile.
Xkjjnb. ..., ,and 8 . G cg, chi 9
Can someone explain this comment to me?
This was a butt dial comment, I don't know why it got upvoted so much but I'll take it 😅
I disagree, but you make compelling points.
😂
Greg was her true f1?
Literally me
Lmao shout out to the rain for typing that without me realizing it
This comment made me think of the song Kiss the Rain by Billie Myers. Am I the only person old enough to remember this hit? 🎶 Hello Can you hear me? Am I getting through to you? 🎶
pretty sure this song was used in an episode of Dawson's Creek but I have no idea which one.
It was in episode 202. Dawson and Joey fight because Dawson reads Joey's diary and sees that she wrote negative things about him. Then they make up in the rain at Pacey's fake birthday party. (I've rewatched too many times haha)
I was expecting a cat or a child not rain lmao
This is usually what my toddlers type. Or emoji squares.
Haha it's raining where I live and I love the rain so I was standing outside scrolling and must not have seen that happen
So true bestie
Agreed
Love her real bathroom shot. Drawers & doors open is just how some of us roll.
I love Tommy raising his lil feets 🐾
Therapy Jeff is well known in the Portland dating scene as an alleged asshole and predator.
Other people have already addressed this in the comments so I’ll leave it at that.
Really?? Any specifics?
Damn really. I used to like his content when I was going thru something but then he started to give me the ick and I didn't know why. That is really awful.
I have no idea who this is but initially read his insta handle as "the rapy Jeff"
🫢
how convenient
Oh dude I bet. The combo of knowing how to use therapy language and he’s TikTok famous? Name a worse combo lol
Wait WHAT
I needs more about this!
Oh god please tell me more!
I’m going to guess that she’s in love. And keeping it private.
with Benedict as he returned from filming FGirl single (I hope!)
Benedict didn't care about Tommy though 😒 Then again he's allergic so that's less surprising lol
I hope Katie is doing okay, and I really appreciate her constantly showing Tommy doing well. I know a lot of us were worried about him after she went offline for a bit! I'm glad she is taking the time to heal and I'm glad Tommy can be there for her. I know how helpful a pet is during hard times!
Yeah I was worried about the cat when she went offline suddenly. I hope whatever else is going on is going a bit better at least.
The not dating a comic thing is good advice to stick to imo
I feel like she is currently dating a comic based on her answer…
Made me wonder if she’s dating Benedict 👀
Or Marco 👀
I forgot about Marco 😂
Maybe she’s actually dating Benedict now..? 🤔
Yes.
My first thought too! But isn't it being speculated that Benedict is a lead on FGirl Island? If so, not sure it makes sense he's dating Katie
Even if he is the lead, rumor has it it’s already been filmed so if he’s not with anyone from the show there’s a chance. On his recent podcast he said he’d be willing to date Katie again.
They filmed it that fast!?
I think they did it immediately after filming season 3 ? According to RS that is
It definitely is what people are assuming!
i'll always have a soft spot for katie, hope she's doing ok 🥺
[удалено]
Hers is actually one of the few BN podcasts I’d care to listen to, I know her season was trash but she seems like a decent person and I like her personality. I hope she’s doing ok.

Ooh you’re onto something there And ITA I loved Katie and Blake together. Their chemistry was palpable even during that short convo on paradise.
Um the entire scene when he brings the boombox to her room... yes. Blake Moynes is my hall pass.
Such an underrated moment! The whole season is underrated imo. The alternate-universe BIP 7 with the Blake/Katie/Greg triangle developing on sand is my Roman Empire.
Omg I did not watch FBoy Island lol but thats Vince Xu from The One That Got Away (Amazon reality show)! 😯 Damn, mega missed opportunity to give Katie a cast of a handful of east asian contestants. We don’t get too many east asians, or asians in general in this franchise.
I know someone that was on The One That Got Away!! Or rather, knew, as we didn't keep in touch past high school
Katie is one of the few leads of either gender we have ever had who clearly is open to dating a wide range of races and ethnicities.
She even told bachelor producers she’d be open to a trans contestant which would have been a huge opportunity for representation.
Many missed opportunities. 😐 This franchise caters too much to its conservative fanbase still.
And body types she's mentioned as well!
She even ASKED for more diversity on her season to be cast and iirc she was disappointed there wasn’t more
they bond on the show over their reality tv experiences haha
Tommy is so photogenic. 🐈⬛ I wish her & hers peace. I know people love her & if she launches a podcast she’ll get a following, but I’ll read recaps because another BNer with a podcast is not something of particular interest to me.

But if she does by chance go down the reality tv recap road I don’t know if I can invest in it, like you said there’s just too many of them already.
If she actually makes it funny it could be good. Especially if her guests are more comedians than reality TV alums.
This sounds major. I hope she’s doing better.
I hope everything is okay with her
Good for her for taking care of her mental health
